I had Palm phones for several years. Calling them smart is overly generous.

I had to press the reset button once a week. It hung up a lot. I had to carry around extra batteries. The only reason I survived is by backing it up to my computer every day, so I could sync the memory back into the phone every time it fritzed out. Twice I had Verizon give me a replacement for a phone less than 2 years old. It was fairly well designed for its time; it just didn't perform as it was supposed to.

I lost my cell phone and got a Palm Pixi from Amazon for $50 since it has been discontinued. It was using the OS that HP developed (helped palm develop?). It might have been pretty good if it had some develop cycles. On Tue, Aug 28, 2012 at 5:46 PM, Daniel J. Matyola danmaty...@gmail.com wrote: I had to press the reset button once a week.

On 28/8/12, Steven Desjardins, discombobulated, unleashed: I lost my cell phone and got a Palm Pixi from Amazon for $50 since it has been discontinued. It was using the OS that HP developed (helped palm develop?). It might have been pretty good if it had some develop cycles. Mrs has a Palm Pre 2 and so far so good. She doesn't like the screen- only option of the iPhone, preferring a tactile keypad like a Blackberry, but didn't like the Blackberrys (go figure!) but the Palm is fast enough, slides open to reveal a keyboard and it hook up to the wifi and is 3G, actually it's quite a cute little thing. The WebOS system is slightly clunky but there's quite a few apps available and it works. http://cdn.pocketnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/palm-pre-2.jpg -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche -- http://www.cottysnaps.com _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
